✦ AI summary

Players praise the game's atmospheric design, effective scares, and engaging lore, with many citing genuine fear and well-executed jumpscares as highlights. Common complaints include frustrating gameplay mechanics like a tedious bear-catching sequence that causes some to abandon the game, and technical issues such as stiff NPC animations that break immersion. The game successfully delivers on horror and environment, though some balancing and polish work on specific mechanics could improve the overall experience.

Really enjoyed the game keep up the work cant wait to see more. Please let me know if i did game Justice in my Gameplay https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jw5ILqKQ_1w Opening Centimatic Voice lines sound ok, but I think need some work on the beginning. Maybe make it seem like you're waking up, perhaps add a filter that makes it seem like you're blinking. Then if you want to make it seem more alive, like your real D class of scp, look down to see your hands tied and one of the agents come over to untie you. They then wish you luck, while laughing and walking away and work with their models a bit as when they walk away it almost looks visually like they're just gliding on ice skates around the corner instead of walking. Navigating amd dioglog is actually really good but you can turn down the step sound ques when player walks cause it do it better justice make more enviorment sounds more vibrante then id sudjeest for the grass pull up the lighting of it so its not as just all black First House Navigation and dialog is actually really good, but you can turn down the stepping sound cues when player walks, because it would do it better justice and make environment sounds more vibrant. …

This game here. I am deeply afraid of the dark I guess you can say I suffer from " Nyctophobia" lol. All jokes aside I have only played the first level/story and I can not. It has the right amount of visuals and sound to go along and they pair nicely. I have not been genuinely scared of a horror game in years. I think the last game that made my blood pressure go up like this game was The Evil Within and even that game only had a few jump scares. If you have the spare money I would highly recommend this game. I will be playing a lot more of it when I get some free time.

The visuals are haunting, the atmosphere is tense, and the jumpscares are frightening!! My little heart felt like it was gonna stop at certain spots, which is exactly why I love horror games! Plus the puzzles were the right amount of challenging without being too hard. I really liked the SCPs and their lore! 10/10 my compliments to the chefs (Dev team)!!! I highly recommend this game for anyone who wants a scary good time! :3
